Waiting Room
Feature Overview
The waiting room can be used to keeping order when joining meeting and guarantee meeting security. After the waiting room is enabled, all attendees require consent from the host or co-host before they can join the meeting, thus eliminating the concerns over the leakage of meeting ID and improving the meeting efficiency.
Prerequisites
You are a Free, Enterprise Edition user
Windows/macOS/iOS/Android
v1.5.0 or above
Notes
1. If both Waiting Room and Attendees Can Join Before the Host are enabled, attendees will not be able to join the meeting before the host.
2. The waiting room supports up to 3,000 attendees.
3. Attendees in the waiting room cannot chat or make video calls with each other, nor hear the meeting audio.
4. Panelists don't need to enter the waiting room; instead, they can join the meeting directly.
